Summarize-File Skill
Purpose
Extracts key insights from text files (logs, reports, notes) and returns 2-3 sentence summaries. Ignores boilerplate/empty lines.
Usage Examples
User: summarize file C:\Users\user\Desktop\ eport.txt Claw: File contains Q1 sales report: Revenue up 12% YoY, expenses flat, net profit +8%. Key risks: supply chain delays.
User: summarize file workspace/error.log Claw: Error log (Feb 22): 14 auth failures (IP 192.168.1.50), 2 DB timeouts, no critical crashes.

How It Works
- Reads file content via workspace.read tool
- Strips empty lines, headers, timestamps
- Feeds to LLM with summarization prompt
- Returns concise 2-3 sentence summary
Security & Privacy
- L1 Risk: Read-only file access
- No network calls, no external APIs
- Local processing only
- File paths validated (no ../ escapes)
External Endpoints
None. Purely local file → LLM → text.
Trust Statement
This skill reads local files and summarizes locally. No data leaves your machine.
